Los Angeles defensive end Myles Garrett missed the team's first practice session of the week on Tuesday due to a knee injury. The defensive end previously experienced swelling in the same knee during preseason, though he returned to practice on Sunday. While he is expected to be available for the season opener against the San Francisco 49ers, his absence from the Tuesday session is a point of concern for the Rams' defensive front. The 49ers are currently managing their own injury report, with nine players limited during their first official practice of the week. Any potential limitation for Garrett could affect the matchup, particularly as the 49ers work to address inexperience along the middle of their offensive line.
